1. DETROIT LIONS - Matthew Stafford, QB- Released Orlovsky and traded away Kitna. That leaves them with Culpepper and Stanton. Obviosly, they dont like Stanton since they played Orlovsky ahead of him, and it seems like their making room for Stafford on the roster by getting rid of all the QB's.

2. ST. LOUIS RAMS - Jason Smith, OT- They just released Orlando Pace and they'll need to find his replacement. Smith is now the highest rated OT in the draft.

3. KANSAS CITY CHIEFS - Aaron Curry, LB- Curry will step in to help out an improving defense with a lot of young, promising talent. My highest rated player in the draft.

4. SEATTLE SEAHAWKS - Eugene Monroe,OT- With the trade for Cory Redding, The Seahawk's O-Line needs help.

5. CLEVELAND BROWNS - Brian Orakpo, DE/OLB- Desperatley need a pass-rush. Their supposed pass-rusher Corey Williams was hurt for most of the year and they need to find him a partner. Orakpo is just that.

6. CINCINNATI BENGALS - Andre Smith, OT- Bengals might go with B.J. Raji here, but after testing positive for drugs, they might go with Smith instead. Then again, that never stopped the Bengals before...

7. OAKLAND RAIDERS - Michael Crabtree,WR- Al Davis loves this guy, and will be a great addition to the Raiders. They will need to pick up much needed O-line help later to protect Russel so he can throw to him.

8. JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS - Mark Sanchez, QB- Not a need, but they were hoping for Crabtree, and if he falls past Seattle, they might trade up to get him. Also might go with Jeremy Maclin or Michael Oher.

9. GREEN BAY PACKERS - B.J. Raji, DT- Packers desperatly need to find a nosetackle for their new 3-4 system. Raji is perfect. Might also go with Aaron Maybin.Trade Down is also a high possibility.

10. SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS - Aaron Maybin, DE/OLB- Niners need a pass-rusher since Manny Lawson has become a complete bust. Trade down is a high possibility.

11. BUFFALO BILLS -Everette Brown, DE/OLB
